Hi,
one more issue for today. :-)
If you call the method hsb() of an pyx.color.hsb instance, you get
a reference to the instance itself.
If you call the method rgb() of an pyx.color.hsb instance, you get
a new instance of pyx.color.rgb.
For an instance of pyx.color.rgb you have the same behavior, just
vice versa. This causes some problems as you can see in the example
below.
################################################################
#!/usr/bin/env python
import pyx
def alteredColor(oldColor):
newColor = oldColor.hsb()
### workaround ###
#newColor = pyx.color.hsb()
#newColor.color = dict(oldColor.hsb().color.items())
###
newColor.color['s'] = 0.5
return newColor
rgbCol = pyx.color.rgb(0.1, 0.1, 0.1)
hsbCol = pyx.color.hsb(0.2, 0.2, 0.2)
newRgbCol = alteredColor(rgbCol)
newHsbCol = alteredColor(hsbCol)
print rgbCol.color # should be (0.1, 0.1, 0.1): ok
print hsbCol.color # should be (0.2, 0.2, 0.2): not ok
################################################################
The hsbCol instance was unintentionally altered. What's The Right
Thing to do? Maybe PyX should return a new instance in any case.
Thanks in advance,
Tom
